Founded in 2006, the indirect Object is an award-winning arts group creating original, immersive experiences for non-traditional spaces.

With a core team of collaborators, our work blends a handmade aesthetic with technology to engage the senses. We are known for our ability to create responsive, original experiences that generate a strong emotional connection.

​

With our roots in experimental puppetry, our key interest in exploring the relationship between space, light, performing object and audience has led to an expansive creative practice that reflects our commitment to exploring new ideas. While the public outcomes of our creative developments have been diverse, our work is always evolving, accessible, sensory, and free to the public.

All projects are original and developed, designed and built by a small group of multi-skilled long-term collaborators. Experimental performances typically involve multi-room soundscapes, projection, purpose-built portable spaces and high-impact low-tech features. Our community activations are accessible, inclusive, and feature striking visual aesthetics, while our interactive outdoor installations are the culmination of years of experimentation with light, sound, design, and tactile objects (be they a puppet, luminous wire, or fibreglass sculptures). These projects also reflect the shared skills, insights, and creative direction of our ongoing collaboration.
